AMERICAN singer, pianist and worship leader Terry MacAlmon is returning to ministry. Read a statement from the artist, "Many of you know of my moral failure and subsequent divorce from my wife, Greta. To just set the record straight, my sin was brought to light in December of 2007. After four months of counselling, I simply imploded and I separated from Greta in May of 2008. nearly a year after the separation, and following six more months of counselling and therapy, believing there was too much to overcome between Greta and myself, we divorced in April of 2009. This was actually my choice, not hers, and I have laboured with much pain and agony over the decision. There is much more to any situation than meets the eye and I wish the very best for her a she moves forward. She is a wonderful lady and I am committed to help her as much as I can. We continue to share my music royalty business. We are both extremely proud of our three grown sons and their families. God is so good. Incidentally, the 'illegal' relationship I had was short lived and long past. Today I live alone in Dallas, Texas. I am grateful for what I have learned from trained professionals as it has been helpful in answering some of the 'whys' of my life as well as charting a new course of thought and action going forward. . . In the past few months God has been wooing me back to that which I was made to do - worship him publicly and help his people do the same. . ." Terry will be visiting the UK in November.

Pastor MacAlmon, God Bless you and Keep you, I try to listen to I sing praises every day. When it comes to the part we give Glory to Your Name I think I am hearing angels singing. This and Holy Holy Holy are my ultimate favourite worship songs. Thank you. Praise God for evermore.Mary

I did not know about you before, but two weeks ago while browsing for christian praises I heard your voice for the first time. The Lord has blessed you with a beautiful voice; I do not judge you as the Scriptures tells us to don't judge onto others...that's only God's right. I pray for your ex-wife as well as for you and your present wife. God bless you all, amen.

Every sin is forgiveable except sinning against the Holy Spirit. You are blessed and highly favored to have written and produced some of the best worship music I can listen to. The anointing is on your music!!! The instrumental CD "Holy" is off the hook. I use it for my praise & worship and the Holy Spirit shows up. I thank God for His grace and mercy over all of his children. Thank you for not forsaking your calling and giving up. Thank you for showing us all we can fall but our Lord picks us up and helps us to go forward. God bless you and your ministry Terry.

GOE: Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth? - Galatians 4:16

1) EAGLES MUST UPHOLDING THE TRUTH - Dear children, let's not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions (1 Jn 3:18). Truth without love is cruelty, but love without truth is hypocrisy. But, speaking the truth in love, we may grow up into Him in all things, who is the Head, the Christ (Ephesians 4:15).

2) EAGLES MUST FOCUS ON JESUS AND CALLING - Therefore, holy brothers, partners in a heavenly calling, keep your focus on Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession (Hebrews 3:1)

3) IT'S TIME FOR THE EAGLES TO GATHER - “Gather to me My faithful ones, who made a covenant with Me by sacrifice!” (Psalms 50:5), Whoever is not with Me is against Me, and whoever does not gather with Me scatters. (Matthew 12:30)

Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction - Blaise Pascal

To render good for evil is divine.’ To render good for good is human.’ To render evil for evil is brutish.’ But to render evil for good is devilish! - Thomas Brooks
